Was the leather muscled curiass of the later times sexier?
#44
Every painted or mosaical representation of musculata I've ever seen is either steel or brass coloured and shaded (possibly silver or gold); No brown ones.

All pteryges I've ever seen are white or a primary colour; No brown ones.

Show me brown or even beige musculata or pteryges in frescoes or mosaics and I might be more open to the possibility of Ren Fairre tat in the 1st-C AD.

If body armour was leather, why not helmets? Please, please, please, post any coloured representation of an ancient Roman soldier wearing leather musculata.
